| Reverse description | A vibrantly colored Chinese dragon depicted in high relief, its long sinuous and scaled body coiled into the form of a figure eight — a number considered highly auspicious in Chinese culture — filling the entirety of the coin's field. The dragon is rendered with fine detail including clawed limbs, an open-mouthed head with whiskers and horns, and polychrome color application contrasting against the antiqued silver background. The traditional Chinese character 龍 (dragon) appears prominently as part of the design, accompanied by the designer's initials IJ. |
